Connecting Additional Power

Some All-in-Wonder® X1800 Series graphics cards require an additional power connection. If your All-in-Wonder® graphics card requires a separate connection to the computer’s power supply, follow these instructions for PCIe™, as appropriate.

Note: All-in-Wonder® X1800 Series graphics cards that require connection to the computer’s power supply will have a power cable connected to them.

Consult your system builder or OEM to ensure that your system has an adequate power supply. A PCI Express® compatible system has a specialized 12V graphics card power connector. A 450 watt or greater power supply is recommended. Consult your computer system manual to ensure the power supply is designed to accommodate a high-end graphics card with a peak dissipation above 75 watts.
